Donald Trump Unleashes Fury on Grammys, Threatens Lawsuit Against Trevor Noah Over Joke
In a scathing post on Truth Social, former US President Donald Trump has lambasted the Grammy Awards, calling it "virtually unwatchable" and even threatened to take legal action against host Trevor Noah over a joke made during the broadcast.
Trump's rant began when comedian Trevor Noah poked fun at him in connection with late financier Jeffrey Epstein. Noah quipped that since Epstein's death, Trump needs a new island to hang out on – referencing Bill Clinton's alleged ties to Epstein. Trump took umbrage, disputing the comment and claiming he had never been to Epstein Island or accused of any wrongdoing.
The former president's tirade against the Grammys and Noah was nothing short of vitriolic. He described the ceremony as "WORST" and claimed CBS is lucky not to have more "garbage" on its airwaves. Trump also took aim at Noah, calling him a "total loser" who needs to get his facts straight.
But what's perhaps most notable about Trump's outburst is the threat of legal action against Noah. Trump vowed to send his lawyers after the comedian, warning that he'll have "fun with you!" The Recording Academy and Noah's representatives have yet to respond to Trump's remarks at this point.
The Grammys, which marked Noah's sixth consecutive hosting gig, continued their tradition of opening monologues that tackle politics, pop culture, and current events. However, it appears Noah's attempt at humor may have left Trump fuming. Only time will tell if the comedian will face any repercussions for his joke – or if Trump will follow through on his threats.

You can't take the heat, stay out of the Grammys, right? It's just another example of how our culture is all about attention and outrage. We're always looking for someone or something to yell at. And what's with the threat of a lawsuit? Is that really the kind of thing you want to do, man? 
I mean, can't we just laugh and move on like normal people?
... like, what even is he trying to accomplish here? just getting all salty about some joke that was totally in good fun? 
dude I'm so over trump's constant drama he can't even handle a little joke from trevor noah and now he's threatening a lawsuit? like what's next is he gonna sue the grammys for existing? 
seriously though it's just another example of him being super sensitive about his own personal issues. newsflash donnie, you're not as popular as you think you are 
! Trevor Noah's joke was just that - a joke, but to Trump, it became an invitation to escalate things. And what's concerning is how quickly Trump jumped to defend himself, even going as far as threatening legal action 
. It raises questions about accountability and when does satire cross the line? But more importantly, it highlights the dangers of not knowing when to let go 
. If we don't take a step back and breathe, we risk getting sucked into the vortex of outrage. Remember, folks, humor is subjective, but not everyone will find it funny 
. Like, come on Donald, if you can't take a joke, maybe stick to tweet-storming instead of hosting the Grammys 
. As for his threat of legal action, yeah right... I'm sure Noah's team has a few lawyers ready to roast Trump instead 
.
like what did he even expect? a comedy club not the Grammys?!?! 
what a loser move by trump 
his beef with noah is so extra 
i mean, come on, just take the joke and laugh it off lol 
but now he's threatening a lawsuit over a joke? 
i'm pretty sure noah did his research and had some facts to back up his jokes
